IMPORTANT: The setters functions' names were normalized due to constant confusion regarding capitalization. All the function names start with set... instead of Set.... This convention was changed all throughout Freestyle. To use Freestyle as an external renderer, the SWIG library MUST be regenerated.
----------
Particle patch from Cédric Paille: bugfixes and child-particles export improvements for .getLoc(), part.getRot() part.getSize(), part.getAge() methods.
Also fix a bug with part.randemission getter (was using PART_BOIDS_2D instead of PART_TRAND), plus typos and duplications in API documentation.
First batch of optimizaton of the bullet adaptation layer in the BGE.
- remove circular motion state update.
- optimization of physic adaptation layer for bullet: bypass
unecessary conversion of rotation matrix to quaternion and back.
- remove double updates during object replication.
Text.setCursorPos(row, col) now pops the text into view if it is in the active window space. The outliner uses this to jump to any definition in a script; it is invoked with Ctrl+T.
Curve modifier on lattice suffered drawing updates, only when the system
was not animated though, missed depsgraph calls then.
Solved it by forcing lattice to always return displist for its vertices,
that's same as for how mesh/curve works now.
Specular render in Blender still had terminator problems... only the diffuse
part got "phong correction" applied. I didn't fix this before to not change
rendering results just before the release. Now there's time I hope?
Render results should only differ minimal, and only visible for low spec
hardness values (like 1 or 2)
*Made nearest surface also use "quad" bvh tree (instead of splitting quads in 2 bvh nodes).
Again that leaded to improvements in build and query time.
*BLI_bvhtree_find_nearest api is now following the same concept as BLI_bvhtree_ray_cast
removed code relative to bvhtree_from_mesh_tris.
Certain actuators hold a pointer to an objects: Property,
SceneCamera, AddObject, Camera, Parent, TractTo. When a
group is duplicated, the actuators that point to objects
within the group will be relinked to point to the
replicated objects and not to the original objects.
This helps to setup self-contained group with a camera
following a character for example.
This feature also works when adding a single object
(and all its children) with the AddObject actuator.
The second part of the patch extends the protection
against object deletion to all the actuators of the above
list (previously, only the TrackTo, AddObject and
Property actuators were protected). In case the target
object of these actuators is deleted, the BGE won't
crash.
This situation corresponds to a group containing only a portion
of a parent hierarchy (the Apricot team needed that to avoid
logic duplication). The BGE will instantiate only the
children that are in the group so that it follows the 3D view
more closely.
As a result, the logic links to the objects in the portion of the
hierarchy that was not replicated will point to inactive objects
(if the groups are stored in inactive layers as they should be).
To keep the logic system consistent, these links are automatically
removed.
This last part of the patch is a general fix that could go in
2.47 but as this situation does not normally occurs in pre-2.47
games, it is not needed.
the aspect of a block could become negative and default when scaling icons.
this is caused by the using viewRedrawForce (transforming a mesh) and drawing icons in the image panel.
must look into why bwin_getsinglematrix can give a negative value, probably because the opengl state is set incorrect.
This is still not correct because the aspect will be wrong. but at least it wont crash.
UnaryFunction0D and UnaryFunction1D implementations are going to be really challenging due to the changes in the infrastructure: UnaryFunction0D<T> and UnaryFunction0D<T> are templates and must be determined for compile-time. The easiest solution is to support each type individually; unfortunately, it removes the benefit of using an interface. To find a middle ground, a general unary function Python object type was created for 0D and 1D. In both cases, the types have a void* pointer keeping the address of the current unary function type. I am not sure yet if it will work.
Interface0DIterator being removed by a list type, the t() and u() coordinate functions will to be transferred somehow, probably directly at the Interface0D level.
So far, whenever a Python object is created from its corresponding C++ object, the input object reference is copied into a new object. Due to Freestyle's functions (especially regarding the way it is iterated), it is currently impossible to deal with a pointer-based Python object. It is not a real drawback, just an aspect to keep in mind.
From now on, when a set should be output (PySet_Type), it is given as a list (PyList_Type). The reason is that it doesn't really matter what we bring back to the Python interpreter. The set is guaranteed in memory on the C++ side.
For the CurvePoint class, the userdata variable is not yet ported (and will probably available as a list or a dictionary). The CurvePoint implementation works except for the initialization from other CurvePoints: somehow, the inner variables don't seem to be correctly handled. I do not know if it is a bug in Freestyle or if the CurvePoint object's state is correct for my test case. CurvePoint needs more testing.
